Yes, sorry, I meant that if men did not have to submit a photograph, would the premise of a dating site work, do you think?
Thanks for claryfying
I hope it would! But I'm not 100 % sure. I think some sort of attraction is needed for it to be a romantic relationship and not just a friendship. But on the other hand there can be no relationship without friendship, at least not for me.
I think that mostly for me faces are just faces until I discover the personalities behind them.
But attraction is sometimes strange. I've had it that I've seen someone and I directly disliked them only based on their looks without understanding why. It wasn't later that I understood that they looked like someone that I disliked a lot, and I associate the bad characteristics of that person with certain features...
I never understood why people have a type, and it's like completely defined before meeting them (that nose, that hair, that mouth, that height, that weight...) I might have certain preferences myself but I don't want something that fits an ideal, I want something real with faults and all. I don't know if I'm making sense sometimes it's difficult for me to explain myself properly.

Another "stripper prank" victim, this one trying to convince me how she's a better choice than my 'clients'

I know all about Sweden, from Sigurd Ring to Erik the Heathen to the Kalmar Union to the Swedish Empire to the Bernadottes. The mounds at Upsalla! And of course all the furry Norwegian forest kitties. And the goo food.

haha I don't plan on making a harem
Can you still call it a harem if it's filled with men instead of women?trollcatman wrote:
That pervert thing is real, I remember being in a pub years ago with a bunch of friends and one of them was a girl (16 or so), and she was approached a couple of times by 50+ men who asked for her phone number. Creepy.
Urgh...baah...vies Sometimes I'm happy that I’m old so I don't have to deal with creeps and perverts...
I've had encounters perverts since I was 13, how sad is that? That girls are not left alone, that old men have to make comments or go after young girls...
Vies is the right word, especially if you say it loudly "FFFFFFFFFIES". That's one of the reasons I like being an adult man, people won't dare to bother you with crap like that.

Extra funny in Sweden, Fis= a fart Yes I admit that I'm childish
I often speak terrible dutch with the cats, they don't judge me
Another funny thing is that poes sounds like the swedish word puss=kiss
So imagine when the Dutch people in Sweden are calling for their poes...

[oooow, after I posted this I realised it was censored. Blah]Doos (box) can also mean vagina, and it can also mean "female person".
And Kattegat means Cat hole (or cat arse). It was named by medieval sailors so take your pick.

I didn't read all six pages, so I may be repeating someone, but here goes...
People (both men and women) are physically attracted to people who look healthy. Youth and facial symmetry are valued by both sexes. Men also value the hourglass body shape because it suggests fertility (the so-called "childbearing hips"). Women value a muscular physique because it suggests the man will be able to protect any children they produce. Sexual attractiveness is, at the subconscious level, all about creating and sustaining healthy babies.
This doesn't mean tastes can't vary somewhat by individual, just that when people have little/nothing to go on apart from looks, they will tend to gravitate toward people with these qualities. This means that sites like Tinder don't work very well for people who don't possess those qualities. Or for people who are interested in a relationship that involves more than simple copulation.

Does that mean that White women don't generally find me healthy while women of other colours generally do?
How can you interpret my tinder experiment and the insanely huge difference between one region and another?
They probably still find you hot, but they will stereotype you as foreigner/immigrant/minority so they skip you in favor of someone who is equally hot but is a native. Same thing employers/recruiters do.
Now you're saying it, the HR industry is largely dominated by women.
And for a very odd reason, they are often tall and good-looking women.
No wonder why HRs are clones too.

Never forget that "human resource" is a euphemism for the Hire & Fire Department. Around here they have become very adept at finding ways to fire you and then hire you back for exactly the same job but for lower pay.
